Principle of NMR Spectroscopy

NMR-Spectroscopy Principle 

NMR spectroscopy involves the absorption of electromagnetic radiation in the radiofrequency region and the principle of NMR spectroscopy revolves around the non- zero value of nuclear spin i.e. I

In the absence of an external magnetic field, these spins are randomly oriented. However, on application of external magnetic field, their spins align in different possible orientations by aligning themselves either in the direction of the external magnetic field or in the direction opposite to the external magnetic field.

            Number of possible orientations = 2I+1

For I= ½ the possible orientations = 2x ½ +1 = 2


These spins are now separated by a fixed energy difference between them which is denoted by ΔE and this difference varies directly with the external applied magnetic field i.e. B0.

                                                                     ΔE  B0      and  ΔE  γ and

where, ΔE = energy difference between different spin states
 B0  = external applied magnetic field
h =  Planck's constant
ν = Precessional Frequency

γ = Gyromagnetic Ratio = magnetic moment /angular momentum

   ΔE = hν this makes, ν = γB0/2π

the interaction of spinning nucleus (smaller magnet) with the applied magnetic field generates a precessional motion in the spinning nucleus having a precessional frequency, ν. When this precessional frequency matches with frequency of sources’s radiowaves, the transition occurs from lower energy sate to higher. That’s why the process is known as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. This absorption is recorded in the form of an NMR spectrum which provides significant information.

Renewable sources of energy

  Renewable sources of energy   are the sustainable energy sources because the se   are not depleted with usage as they can be replenished either naturally or manually within the short time scale and hence can be used again and again. Advantages/Benefits of Renewable sources of energy ü  Ensure energy Security ü  R educ tion in   greenhouse gas emissions, ü  Help to combat   the change s in   climat ic conditions   T ypes of   Renewable sources of energy 1. Solar Energy Solar energy   is one of the most abundant and widely used renewable source s of energy which can be used as follows: i.  Either directly as heat for solar heater for boiling water/preparing food etc. ii.  Or converted   to electricity using Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Panels   which is then used as energy source for diverse purposes. Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Panels : These are the panels prepared using semiconductor materials (e.g., silicon) ...

Bathochromic and Hypsochromic Shift

  B athochromic shift   -  It is the shift of the   absorption maxima (λ max ) of a substance   towards longer wavelengths . It is   also known as red shift .   Since, Energy (E) is inversely proportional to Wavelength. So, in Bathochromic shift----energy decreases and wavelength increases. In Bathochromic shift, energy decreases and wavelength increases. Factors causing Bathochromic shift: The bathochromic shift is caused by following: A.  Extending Conjugation i.  either by increasing double bonds ii.  or by adding electron donating groups ( like -OH, -NH 2 )   in conjugation to double bonds. B.  Solvent Effects i.  The less polar (non-polar) solvents cause bathochromic shift for n-π* transitions. ii.  The more polar (polar) solvents cause bathochromic shift for π-π* transitions. Example: Benzene shows  π-π* electronic transitions at 255 nm. Adding auxochrome NH 2   to the benzene ring makes it aniline an...

Isotopes (समस्थानिक), Isobars (समभारिक) and Isotones (समन्यूट्रानिक) with examples

  Isotopes: Isotopes are the atoms of an element having same atomic number but different mass number. They also have the same number of protons . Example  1 : ·  Hydrogen   has three   isotopes : o  Protium ( 1 H 1 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 1, Mass number = 1 o  Deuterium ( 1 H 2 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 1, Mass number = 2 o  Tritium ( ( 1 H 3 ) :   Atomic Number = Number of protons = 1, Mass number = 3 Ex ample  2 : ·  Carbon   has two   isotopes : o  Carbon-12 ( 6 C 12 ) : Atomic Number = Number of protons = 6, Mass number = 12 o  Carbon-14 ( 6 C 14 ) :   Atomic Number = Number of protons = 6, Mass number = 14 समस्थानिक : समस्थानिक   एक   तत्व   के   परमाणु   होते   हैं   जिनकी   परमाणु   संख्या   समान   होती   है   लेकिन   द्रव्यमान   संख्या   भिन्न   होती   है।   उनके ...
